Police search for assailants

On Friday, July 11, at about 9:35 p.m., the Fort Bragg Police Department was contacted by a concerned citizen who heard gunshots in the area of Morrow and Cedar streets. When officers arrived, they canvassed the area and spoke with witnesses who reported hearing only one gunshot.

A witness told officers that a man was chased by a group of men and the victim was possibly shot at by one of the subjects who were chasing him, the FBPD said in a Tuesday statement.

Officers located the victim, who was not hurt, and who provided very little information about the identity or descriptions of the men who shot at him.

Evidence was located at the scene confirming that at least one round had been fired. The evidence was sent to the California Department of Justice for analysis.

The Fort Bragg Police Department is asking for the public's assistance in identifying the subjects responsible for this incident. If you have any information regarding this incident, please contact Sergeant Charles Gilchrist at 961-2800, ext. 112.
